New to Nitrous

I'm considering adding nitrous. Heard the 5177kit(Dry)~100-125shot is a very good way to go. Everything i have mechanically is stock, with that said Dry or Wet? Like to stay cheap. And from what i have gathered a Window switch is an additional part to consider. Any other cheap but useful parts?? let me know thx guys!

I had the 5177, biggest POS - sorry man

It under-performed and the solinoids were crap

Go with the NX maf kit, contact NitroDaves or Speed Inc for them

I like the 5177 and have had good luck on two vettes. One of the most popular kits made. Includes everything to get started except window. Very safe versitile kit, imo. Includes dual n2o noids, fpss, blow down tube, wiring switches, relay, press gauge and 15# bottle that can be turned in for credit (buy other n2o stuff) and 10#'er. Later you can add the NOS wet add on kit or seperate the redundant noids for dual stage or add a complete wet kit for second stage and more.

Cool thx guys. I'm trying to understand how to do a dry then wet? I guess that's called a dual stage? From what i understand the Dry pulls the timing for the wet shot..am i right on this?? THX
